Water is life. Water is absolutely essentials to all form of
living creature-those that comprises our
Biology subject; all living things including plants and animals.
WHY IS WATER GOOD FOR US? Because more than half
of our human body is made up of water, and this is even true to other living
things. Absence of water in our system
means absence of life too. As a matter
of fact, the human body takes in about 2
quarts of water as fluids, 1 quart from what we called solid foods such as
vegetables, fruits, bread, rice and meat
[these solid foods are not really dry since they were 30% to 90% water].
Our body also
maintains about 10 Quarts of water that passes through our systems; it passes
back and forth through our veins, arteries, and various organs.
We have about 5
quarts of blood running in our system, and 60% of this 5 Quarts of blood is
water. And this always remains unchanged
no matter how much water you drink.
We could say that
our sense of thirst is controlled by the brain, but when we experience the
sensation of thirst, that our mouth and throat become dry-it is a signal that
our body requires more fluid.
